Do you feel that you are a very honest person or do you have room for growth? This is a tricky question. No one is ever 100% honest. This question more so probes your integrity and your intentions. The semantics of your answer may reveal more about your intentions so choose your words with care. Back up your reply by touching on your personal ethics.

"I would love to give myself a 10/10 for honesty but truthfully - nobody is 100% honest all of the time. I will give myself an 9 because I always do my best to be as honest as possible."

I give it my best to be a 10. That is not only to others but also to myself. I never mislead anyone on where I am on a task and believe in full transparency and building trust within the team. I'm also completely honest with myself where if I don't know how to do something, I have no problems reaching out for assistance. That's what a strong team does for each other.
Stephanie's Feedback
This is a well-rounded response. You do a great job of quantifying your honesty while also illustrating how this important trait shows up in your work.
Anonymous Answer
I try to be transparent in my workings and transactions where ever necessary.
Nevertheless, I try to provide a background for which I am seeking information or providing the information. This helps me to build trust among my peers and stakeholders.
Marcie's Feedback
Nice! Just don't forget to actually rank yourself between 1 and 10 since that's what the question directly asks you to do. Otherwise, the interviewer will appreciate that you're honest and straightforward with others. Good job!
